Four matches were on the menu today – two in the upper and two in the lower half of the bracket. Mental Boomers met Fiko Izdaja in the second round of the winners’ bracket, but they weren’t able to do anything to harm their opponents. Fiko Izdaja held their ground and secured a 2-0 win in this League of Legends match.

In the first match of the lower bracket, Placeholder managed to eliminate Fantastic Esports. Next week, we will watch a match between Placeholder and the losers of the Fiko Izdaja – Mental Boomers match, Mental Boomers. The other upper bracket match finished in favor of Split Raiders, who defeated the Macedonian team Harmony 2-1 after an intense match.

In the final SWISS playday of Brawl Stars, Lil Surprise and Mayoi got their much-needed wins and qualified for the Season 7 playoffs.

The Croatian derby between Tora Gold and Lil Surprise was as fierce as anyone could have hoped for. Both teams were determined to clinch one of the two remaining playoffs spots, but only one of them could really do it. The match was played until the very last set, when Lil Surprise managed to hold their ground and beat Tora Gold in the fifth SWISS round.

The final match of the SWISS league saw 09 Gang and Mayoi give their all. Just like the previous match, this one went to all five maps too, and this time – Mayoi was the team that outplayed their opponents. With these two matches done, the final standings are known – Noble Elite BLK & Red, Mayoi and Lil Surprise will continue on, while Tora Gold, 09 Gang, Omerta and QSKE have ended their participation in this season of Brawl Stars in the group stage.

Each game has two playdays left before the final stage of this A1 Adria League season begins. CS:GO, FIFA, and Brawl Stars will finish their fourth round, while League of Legends goes deeper into the Regional Playoffs stage!

FIFA21

Brawl Stars once again ended after only one day so we will start this week of A1AL with FIFA21. We have one FIFA match scheduled for this Friday. Tarik “amke2001” Novo and Armin “arminho0307” Hasanbegović are two players from the 2-1 and 1-2 SWISS pools, respectively, and they will clash this week in an interesting match that can change the outcome of the SWISS stage. In the event of an arminho0307 win, both players will remain in the SWISS stage with a 2-2 result and will fight in the last round of the groups. However, if amke2001 wins, arminho0307 will be eliminated from the season, while amke will join Miloš “brstimir” Majdevac and Filip “FIFAFICO” Babić in the playoffs.

CS:GO

Cobalt Esports eliminated Onlinerss last week and they are waiting for the other matches to finish before the fifth round starts. These matches are 4glory – PORTUGAL and Good Game – Midnight. 4glory and PORTUGAL are two teams that have two wins each so far, and the winner of this duel will advance to the playoffs. In the other match, Good Game has two wins as well, but their opponents, Midnight, have outplayed only one team so far. Just like in FIFA’s only match, if Good Game wins, Midnight will be eliminated, and if Midnight upsets the Macedonians, both teams will be 2-2.

League of Legends

The first Regional Playoffs playday saw the eight qualified teams play out their first matches in the double-elimination bracket. This Saturday, Harmony are taking on Split Raiders and Mental Boomers will play versus Fiko Izdaja in the upper half of the bracket. Down in the losers’ bracket, Placeholder and Fantastic Esports will play the first elimination match of the Regional Playoffs. The second elimination match is between QSKE Gaming and the Macedonian side, Brotagonists1g.

 

Cobalt Esports eliminate Onlinerss from the seventh season!

In the only match of this CS:GO Round 4 playday, we watched Cobalt Esports take on Onlinerss and eliminate them after only two maps.

This match started on Inferno. It was an easy game for Cobalt Esports who outplayed the current CS:GO BIH League champions with a dominant 16:7 final result. Right after Inferno, Train was the map that the audience was looking at. It was a much more exciting map than Inferno as both teams had their moments and showed some great tactics on the now-removed Active Duty map. However, Marko “Maki” Mijatović and Cobalt once again reigned supreme and closed out the BO3 with a 16:12 victory. This loss meant elimination for Onlinerss, while Cobalt Esports will fight for their last chance at making the playoffs in the next round.

In the first playday of the regional League of Legends playoffs for this season, the eight teams participating played their first matches in this double-elimination bracket.

A total of four matches were played out this Saturday. Harmony were able to overcome Fantastic Esports in the only BO3 that went to all three games today. It was an intense matchup that saw the Croatian Fantastic Esports give their best, but their opponents were dedicated to taking the win – and they did. The other Macedonian team wasn’t victorious. Mental Boomers managed to past Brotagonists1g and secure a spot in the next winners’ bracket round, while Brotagonists1g will fight for survival against QSKE Gaming.

Since we mentioned QSKE, let’s talk about their match today. After a great group stage, they came up versus Fiko Izdaja in their first match in the Regional Playoffs. QSKE Gaming’s Serbian squad was unable to compete with Fiko Izdaja and lost that game 0-2. Split Raiders and Placeholder are the two teams that round up the playoffs team list. Their match ended up with a victory for the former, who are now set up to play Harmony next Saturday

FIFAFICO advances further; Sulja leaves the A1 Adria League!

The first playday of this fourth FIFA21 SWISS round was played out today. Filip “FIFAFICO” Babić and Esad “NKOS_esad1memic” Memić ended this playday victorious, while Leon “Sardinho213” Šardi and Emir “Sulja” Suljović failed to secure another win.

FIFAFICO and Sardinho213 played the first match as players from the 2-1 pool. The two of them were looking to grab the second playoffs spot, but only one of them could do it today. FIFAFICO was the better one in today’s duel and ended up going to the playoffs, while Sardinho213 now has a 2-2 score and will look for his chance in the fifth round.

One of the players from the second match, NKOS_esad1memic or Sulja, were bound to leave the league after this playday. It was a fierce match that ended with a final score 4:5 in favor of NK Osijek’s player. That means that Sulja will join Marko “klaic” Klaić in the eliminated portion of the table. Sardinho213 and NKOS_esad1memic will wait for the next playday to finish to see their opponents in the final round of the SWISS stage.

Omerta eliminated in the fourth Brawl Stars round!

Just like Round 3, this SWISS round of Brawl Stars was concluded in only one playday, with Lil Surprise, 09 Gang, and Noble Elite Red taking the wins.

After QSKE Gaming’s disqualification, the number of matches was reduced so we scheduled the third round to be played in only one playday. The same applied to Round 4, so we had the chance to watch a total of three matches today. The first one for the night was an elimination match between Lil Surprise and Omerta. It saw the former take a comfortable 3-1 win against the Serbian squad and secure a match in the fifth round.

Next up were Tora Gold and 09 Gang. Tora Gold were a part of the 2-1 pool before the beginning of this round, while 09 Gang had only one win so far. However, a great showing from 09 Gang evened their standings – now they are both a part of the 2-2 pool of the SWISS table. To round up the playday, Noble Elite Red took on Mayoi in a match that had a playoffs spot on the line. Noble Elite Red got a clean 3-0 win and joined Noble Elite BLK in the playoffs.

This week in A1AL: Round 4 starts; League of Legends goes regional!

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

This week in A1 Adria League we will see the fourth rounds of Brawl Stars, FIFA21 and CS:GO while League of Legends will enter its Regional Playoffs stage!

Brawl Stars

Our regional Brawlers have had an amazing season so far. The third round was done in one playday, so last week we didn’t have any Brawl Stars action. The plan remains the same for the fourth round – all three matches of the round will be played this Thursday, while next week we will be taking another break from the arenas. Tora Gold and 09 Gang are the teams from the 2-1 and 1-2 pools, respectively, that will be clashing this time in the fourth round. Besides that match, we have one 2-1 match between Mayoi and Noble Elite Red and one 1-2 duel between Omerta and Lil Surprise.

FIFA21

Round 4 of FIFA will commence with a duel between Leon “Sardinho213” Šardi and Filip “FIFAFICO” Babić – two players that are now a part of the 2-1 pool and are fighting for a spot in the playoffs. When the winner of this match gets decided, we will watch one more match, but this time it will be a survival match. Esad “NKOS_esad1memic” Memić will take on Emir “Sulja” Suljović for a chance to stay in the League. While NKOS_esad1memic has the role of a favorite, Sulja has proven time and time again that he can upset the biggest names in the region.

CS:GO

Last Sunday, ONYX managed to qualify for the playoffs over 4glory who fell short of a win for the first time this season. 4glory will have a chance to fix their mistake this week when they are facing PORTUGAL in the 2-1 bracket. Besides this duel that is sure to raise some eyebrows, we will watch Cobalt Esports take on Onlinerss in the second duel of the day. While the winner of this second match will survive for the fifth round, the losing side will have to say its goodbyes to the League and join Fullshock as one of the eliminated teams.

League of Legends

Over the last couple of weeks, the League of Legends teams from Serbia, Macedonia, and Croatia have been playing in their respective National Playoffs stage to advance further in the League. Now, that the National Playoffs stage came to an end, the Regional Playoffs phase of this season’s LoL action can start. The bracket is already known and we have the four pairs that will start this double-elimination journey to the top. Harmony is taking on Fantastic Esports, Brotagonists1g will fight Mental Boomers and QSKE Gaming will have Fiko Izdaja as their opponent. The fourth match will see Split Raiders face Placeholder for a spot in the upper bracket semifinals.

ONYX qualify for this season’s CS:GO playoffs!

The end of the third round for CS:GO saw the reigning champions earn their spot in the playoffs in the derby versus 4glory.

Two matches marked the end of yet another CS:GO round in which we got our first qualified side. ONYX have been dealing with internal problems and recently did massive changes to their roster, but the squad managed to win their match against 4glory even with their old team. Vladyslav “⁠bondik⁠” Nechyporchuk and Dmitriy “⁠jR⁠” Chervak – two experienced veterans joined the team’s lineup today as a change to an international team was announced. As far as the match goes, it went  to three maps – 4glory got Inferno and ONYX responded with two wins on Train and Mirage, respectively.

Match two ended a bit quicker than the first one as only two maps were played out. Cobalt Esports and Good Game were a part of the 1-1 pool before the third round. While it wasn’t a decider match, this result managed to shape the incoming rounds in a different way. Namely, Good Game, who were considered favorites by most won the match after only two rounds and locked in their second victory in the seventh A1 Adria League season. Cobalt Esports, on the other side, now reside in the 1-2 pool together with Onlinerss and Midnight.

League of Legends enters its Regional Playoffs stage!

/0 Comments/in , /by

With this League of Legends day concluding, we now know the names of the eight teams that managed to qualify for the next stage of the A1 Adria League.

Croatia

Three Croatian teams will continue their journey to the Regional Playoffs. Split Raiders advanced through the National Playoffs stage undefeated and beat Fantastic Esports 2-0 in the Grand Finals after Fantastic forfeited their previous duel. Before the final match started, Fiko Izdaja was defeated by Fantastic, but since they already won their fair share of matches, they will also play in the next stage.

Serbia

An action-packed BO3 in the Serbian finals saw QSKE Gaming outplay Mental Boomers and secure the first place in this National Playoff. Just like Split Raiders in Croatia, QSKE didn’t suffer a single loss on their way to the Regional Playoffs. Mental Boomers, on the other hand, fough through the lower bracket and defeated Placeholder in the LB finals.

Just like Croatia, Serbia will also boast three teams in the next stage – QSKE Gaming, Mental Boomers, and Placeholder.

Macedonia

The remaining two teams that will join the Regional Playoffs come from the Macedonian group. They are Harmony and Brotagonists1g – two squads that showed their quality since the very beginning of the double-elimination bracket. With these two additions, the team list is completed.
